Match Officials: Morecambe

Port Vale host Morecambe in Sky Bet League Two this weekend, and the EFL have now confirmed the match officials for the fixture at Vale Park.

John Busby has been named as the man who will take charge of proceedings, and it will be his 33rd fixture of the season, with a breakdown of the games he has refereed so far in 2018/19 listed below:

13 Sky Bet League One games

10 Sky Bet League Two games

2 Emirates FA Cup games

1 Carabao Cup game

6 Checkatrade Trophy games

In those 32 outings, Busby has handed out a total of 74 yellow cards and five reds. He is yet to be the man in the middle of a Vale game so far this season, with the 1-0 home win over Lincoln City in April 2018 being the last time he refereed the Valiants.

Andrew Hendley and Richard Wild will be his assistants on Saturday afternoon, whilst Scott Oldham will take up the role of fourth official.
